collection junkie

I've been a collector for my entire life. Something about sitting back and enjoying how things are made. I've always been fascinated by how when you walk into a room you can see SO much about someone from what you see in their spaces. I am a little obsessive when it comes to digging round in random places looking for some unknown treasure that may or not be just around the next turn.

You can generally classify my obsessions into 3 categories. Tunes (vinyl, tapes, cds, 8tracks you name it), Vintage Mid-Century dish ware & Vintage Modern furnishings. I could live my entire life searching the globe for all of the best examples of these items and be THE happiest person to ever walk the earth. There is something truly fantastic about the passion and the craftsmanship that went into the creating these items that captures my imagination in such a way that is unlike anything else.

I am collecting photographs of my favorite dish patterns.. (yeah I'm a little weird)

Here are a few in no particular order:

Aquaria: CloudsContour Marsh Reeds:Stetson Starburst:SouthWind

giving it a go

I have often thought about starting a blog.. but I never really put any time into it. I have for the last few years, been running around cities soaking up as much as I possibly could. I suppose you can view the word "soak" to be a rather interesting double entendre if you will. Anywho, since I have "calmed down a bit" I guess you could say, I thought I'd give it a go.

I now often wake up on Saturday mornings not with soul crushing hangovers but with a nice day of doing whatever i feel like... Thus I would quite like to spend sometime reflecting. Generally speaking I suppose these types of things can be viewed as rather self indulgent but hopefully I can make something interesting of it.

Here's to hoping!
